Is an APR bi-pipe a good idea?
I just purchased RS4 intercoolers, but I have no shrouds or hoses. I was considering the hose kit from APR, but is states that the hoses fit the bi-pipe. Is it advisable to get one? Is APR the only place to buy it?
TIA

Second mod in my car, after the UUC SS. Great for peace of mind.
I simply do not have to worry about a torn TBB.
If you got an older one, you might want to seal it off and fill it with water to check for leaks. I've read about some people a few years back finding pin-sized holes in the pipe. Wouldn't kill you, but a leak is a leak...
Not sure that even happens anymore.

i would say its a great idea, and plan on doing one sooner or later...
but to this date, i have never blown my stock TBB or even replaced my stock BPVs (since day 1 of taking delievery). i have 710Ns ready to go, but have had no issues with either yet though.
